The people and management offices of BAE Systems are among the best. I have thoroughly enjoyed my employment with BAE Systems and hope to continue in their employ when I return to the states."

"I gained Big Data and Cyber-Analytics experience. I also received Agile training and experience. I server as the assistant to the Scrum Master on a project. As a Software Engineer for BAE, I deployed 6 IBM blades when upgrading a single blade to the Quincy 5 database for the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA)/NMEC. In addition to managing the upgrade, I also used Python to automate how a single blade managed the user community's query queue. Now, a single blade manages the entire queue."
